Oxana [17]

Answer:

 export               import                net export  

1. increases         unchanged         increases

2. unchanged       increases             decreases

3.  unchanged       increases             decreases

4. unchanged       increases             decreases

5. increases         unchanged         increases

Explanation:

export would comprise of goods and services produced in the US that are been sold to foreign countries

Import would comprise of foreign produced goods and services that are been sold in the US

Net export would increase when export occurs and decrease when import occurs

Net export = exports – imports

When the French historian visits the US museum and the European family visits Disney,  they are enjoying US services, thus export increases and net export increases

The purchase of books from Cambridge in UK, Panasonic camera and the visit to Japan constitutes import. These increases import and reduces net export

) There is a hotel which has 50 rooms. When the rate is $180/night, all rooms will be booked up. There will be one more room ava
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The best rate for the hotel for profit maximization is = 340 $/room

Explanation:

Given that

A hotel room has = 50 rooms

The rate per night = $180

More room are available when the rate is increased by = $10

A maintenance fee of =$20

Now

We find the best rate for the hotel in order to  have for profit

Thus,

When no rate increase is found we have the following,

Cost = ( 180 $/room * 50) = $ 9000

Thus,

When there is a rate increase for a room, we have the following

10x $/ room

The new cost becomes = (180 + 10x) $/room * (50 - x)

which is = 9000 = 500x - 180 x - 10x²

= 9000 + 320 x - 10x²

To get the new profit, we have the following :

Thus,

Profit = (New cost) - (cost)

Profit = (9000 + 320 x - 10x²) - (9000)

= 320x - 10x²

By applying maximization

dp/dx = 0 = 320 -10 * 2x = 0

So,

x = 16

Therefore,the best rate for the hotel for profit maximization is = (180 + 10 * 16)

=340 $/room

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: $1644

Explanation:

The corporation's tax basis will be the addition of the tax basis of Tristan and the gain that is recognized on the exchange by Tristan.

Gain realized = 1750 - 1245 = 505

Boot received = 399

The gain recognized on the exchange will the value that's lower between the gain realized which is $505 and the boot received which is $399. Therefore, gain recognized = $399.

The corporation's tax basis will then be:

= Tristan Tax basis + Gain recognized

= 1245 + 399

= 1644
